Cubic meter

Definition: A cubic meter (symbol: m³) is the SI derived unit of volume. It is the volume of a cube with sides one meter in length.

History/origin: The cubic meter is derived from the meter, the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is a fundamental unit for measuring three-dimensional space.

Current use: Cubic meters are used extensively in construction, engineering, and environmental science for measuring volumes of materials like concrete, soil, and air. They are also used in calculating the capacity of large spaces.

Kilolitre

Definition: A kilolitre (symbol: kL) is a unit of volume equal to 1000 litres. It is a multiple of the litre, the standard unit of volume in the metric system.

History/origin: The kilolitre is based on the litre, which was introduced in France in 1795 as part of the metric system. The prefix 'kilo-' denotes one thousand, indicating its scale relative to the litre.

Current use: Kilolitres are used to measure large volumes of liquids, such as water in reservoirs, industrial storage tanks, and swimming pools. They are also used for bulk transportation of liquids.
